The city of Sovata, known for its beautiful nature and warm hospitality, has offered us unforgettable experiences every year. In 2025, we’re excited to return once again to wrap up the Central Europe race season in this special place.
Sovata is a picturesque, world-famous destination where people from all over the world come not just for health treatments, but also to relax and explore its stunning natural surroundings. With its mountains, forests, and unique lakes, it’s the perfect place for outdoor adventures and active escapes.
The area offers a great mix of breathtaking landscapes, peaceful hiking spots, and nature experiences that attract travelers and nature lovers from across the region.
Our start and finish area will be set near Lacul Ursu (Bear Lake) — a natural wonder often called the “Dead Sea of Europe” because it has the highest salt concentration of any lake on Earth. It’s also the largest heliothermal lake in the world, making it a true highlight of Sovata.
The Sprint and Super races will take runners through some of the most iconic parts of the protected Lacul Ursu area — all while respecting environmental rules and preserving the natural beauty.
We’ll also host a Trail 10K (a mountain run without obstacles), and of course, Kids courses designed especially for our young Spartans.
